VTuber News - Drama (April 11, 2022)

  April 11, 2022    

> So MikeNeko(a certain necromancer) just played Genshin Impact yesterday, and there's a fair bit of drama regarding allegations about her buying an account.

Here's a cliffnotes from /jp/   

SUMMARY   

- Nanase posts a warning tweet about a crazy user also tagged with the #Mikeneko hashtag images in which they received a message from a user named "Neko" in Genshin who asked Nanase to sell their account so they can play with Mikeneko and then told Nanase to die. 

- Antis misinterpret this like idiots to be Mikeneko asking for people to sell their accounts 

- Fans tell Nanase to not put Mikeneko in the hashtag as false rumors were being spread of Mikeneko asking to sell accounts 

- Nanase posts provoking tweet(s?) at Mikeneko's fans 

- Nanase then apologizes for bringing up Mikeneko in the hashtag - People continue to tell Nanase to not put #Mikeneko because Antis are saying it's Mikeneko asking for accounts to be sold 

- Nanase apologizes but says they'll only take the tweet down if its Mikeneko herself asking 

- A sub account of a user named Yuki posts a tweet about how they heard from a friend that Mikeneko is telling people to sell their accounts to her and getting gifts from illegal sites 

- Mikeneko quote retweets that with how even just playing a game in peace she's getting attacked 

- Yuki privates their sub account (main account is still fine) 

- Mikeneko quote retweets Nanase asking for Mikeneko to not be brought into this mess by the hashtag 

- Nanase apologizes -

 Mikeneko asks for Nanase to delete the tweet and do it once more without #Mikeneko

- Nanase deletes the tweet and does it again without #Mikeneko- Hours later Nanase tweets they'll stop playing Genshin and apologizes - Some other random user attacks Mikeneko for driving Nanase to stop playing Genshin

- Mikeneko says that how there were false rumors spreading about her asking people to sell their accounts without her knowing all because of that tweet, how Nanase refused to delete the tweet unless Mikeneko herself tweeted at her, so Mikeneko was the one brought into this mess entirely and only asked Nanase to stop 

[Context]: Nanase is seemingly just a random Genshin Impact player. https://twitter.com/nns_kokomi. Don't fucking harrass her though    

MikeNeko is a drama magnet at this point, jesus fucking Christ.  

 This is the translated version of her deleted response tweets since I MYSELF WASN'T FUCKING ABLE TO ARCHIVE IT, MY BAD. Thanks to kiwifarms user paule:  

"I don't know, I really want you to stop being like everything is my fault. I say bah, but I'm doing bad things behind the scenes, but outwardly I'm acting like I'm a good person, like I didn't do anything. I know you don't feel like you're lying or cheating without a care in the world. I just had this conversation with an acquaintance the other day, and it's so true that the bad guys get all the credit.  

If you're going to make me look bad just because I don't say anything, I really can't stand it, so may things move quickly, quickly, quickly: ！！！！！！！！！！ 

This is still a step-by-step process.  

I think it was a really hard feeling as a result of the court case that a certain activist fought for a long time after a long suspension. But I'm involved in many more things, so until then I'll continue my activities with my heart held high. You can just smile now.  

Even this time, I was just having fun and the antis got involved and pretended to be a fan and I was just completely involved. I'm mentally deranged because of everything, so why am I the only one demanding an apology? You've been trying to be positive until then, but you won't let me. Besides, I'm an ordinary person, a private hobbyist distributor.  I really don't want to be a part of it. 

If you don't like it, don't look at it, block it or mute it and defend yourself. I think it's funny to go out of your way to make it visible and talk about it.  I get rips from people before asking me to be happy, but I can't trust people anymore because they've done so much to hurt me in my life.  From my point of view, people who beat depressed people forever are not sane."

> Nanase has since apologized. You can see her apologies on the linked Twitter account.

> So far the drama hasn't broken out into the mainstream. Hopefully some arsehole dramatubers won't cover it, or some obsessive fans won't fan the flames over in social media. The drama seems to have been dying down ever since Nanase apologized. Just wanted to get you guys up to speed.
